Stuff I Like – The Barracks Buddy from Atlas 46

Monday, July 13th, 2015

  
The patented Barracks Buddy was one of the first products developed by John Carver under his 5 Seas Engineering and Trading brand. We are smack dab in the middle of summer camping as well as Annual Training season on the reserve components side. The Barracks Buddy is a great accessory for keeping gear handy when you are staying in tents or barracks with bunks. Because it can be hung vertically or horizontally, I’ve even used it to line dry swimming trunks and towels. Crafted from 50″ long x 2″ wide webbing with a full length 550 cord tacked along the length to allow you to attach gear but the coolest part is the disc-style hook buckle which weaves into the 550 and can be nailed or screwed into a wall for permanent installations.

– Loop hangers allow for variety of hanging options: on hooks, over rods, etc.

Outdoor Retailer – 5 Seas Engineering and Trading

5 Seas Engineering and Trading is the passion of Eagle Industries founder John Carver. He continues to develop good ideas and shared this one with me. The Patent Pending Barracks Buddy was inspired by a requirement to hang multiple hooks to organize gear. It can also be used in locations where you can’t drive nails into the wall.

Truth be told, John’s wife Gretchen came up with the idea in order to help John keep after his stuff.

They realize pretty quickly that this new invention would be great for guys in the military.

What’s more, the hooks can be moved up and down the Barracks Buddy. And, it can be hung vertically or horizontally.
